Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evoloving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
General chats been up for 10 minutes where is everybody? 🤷♀️. So disappointed. ☹️
Ha ha, funny😆 I lied (to myself) last night when I said I was getting off screens. I always pop in before bed. I have noticed next days chat is now popping up after midnight as it should. Instead of around 9-10:30 of the actual day we are still in. I do enjoy seeing the first comments but am missing them if get to sleep early like I should.
I’m noticing if I put my phone on silent, I sleep better. I don’t always do that, but I should. But I don’t like to when I’m away from home, in the event, my 83 year old mother has an emergency, and she can’t reach me. It’s a catch 22.
I understand that! Certain phones have a do not disturb feature. I have iphone (I know!). I can set certain people or apps to get through when on silent. At 9 it’s in silent until later in AM. Only family can call me during that time.
I haven’t been sleeping because of being sick and the steroids.
I have iPhone how do you do that?
Just my mom to get through. How do I do that?
Glad I'm not the only one! I wanted to talk about something. Guess it's not important! 🤣🤣. Let's go find first verse in fren.
👏👏👏
